Does Unity School accept the Florida Private School Scholarship?
Yes, Unity School appears on the Florida Department of Education list of schools taking part in the Florida Tax Credit / Family Empowerment Scholarship (FTC/FES-EO) program.
For a Palm Beach County child, the award at this school would be $8,890 in grades K-3; $8,288 in grades 4-8 for 2026-27, sent to the school in quarterly installments once EMA enrollment is approved.
This school takes pre-K children, so ask if it is an approved VPK provider (the year before kindergarten is free for any Florida four-year-old) and whether it accepts School Readiness certificates from the Early Learning Coalition of Palm Beach County.
